Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: candle Group: v3.0 Status: Open Resolution: None >Priority: 7 Submitted By: mballou (mballou11) >Assigned to: Derek (derekc) Summary: No ShortName for RemoveFile entry Initial Comment: Using version 3.0.1814.0. I have the following entry in a component. <RemoveFile Id="RemoveFile1" Directory="Update" Name="UpdatedFiles.txt" On="uninstall" /> The generated .wixobj file from Candle does not include the "auto-generated" short name for the file and results in an ICE03 error during light.exe. The other entries that support auto generated short names such as Directory and File work correctly. Only RemoveFile seems to have a problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Derek (derekc) Date: 2006-06-20 00:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=518766 Ugh, this is painful. Ok, we're gonna have to carefully look at the logic for validating wildcard-capable short file names. Right now it allows 16.3 but the MSI validation is much smarter so its not happy with that. For now, please authoring RemoveFile/@ShortName as a workaround. I'll look into fixing this for the next weekly release - I've also raised the priority a bit. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642714&aid=1508965&group_id=105970 _______________________________________________ WiX-devs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-devs
